individual pattern produced by chromatography


Explanation:
When you subject, for instance, an ink to chromatography, if you use the same ink and the same solvent, it should produce the same pattern of colour separation each time. A different ink, although appearing to be the same colour would produce a slightly different pattern. Basically, chromatography, either liquid or gas, separates a substance into its component parts. If the same substance is repeatedly subjected to chromatogaphy under identical circumstances each time, it should produce the same results, but if you change the substance or the conditions, you will get different results. You can identify a substance from its chromatographic pattern like you would identify a person by their fingerprint.

agree  Jörgen Slet: There can be more dimensions to the fingerprint, if a mass-spectrometer or some other wide-spectrum detector is used. And you can for instance often match an oil spill from a tanker to its source even after some degradation etc.
